Responsibilities

Reservoir Studies:

• Conducts reservoir simulation studies to determine optimum methods of maximizing ultimate oil recovery and enhance individual well performance.
• Propose studies with the objectives to improve field management.
• Perform Reservoir Engineering studies related to classical analytical techniques (material balance analysis, fractional flow, decline analysis, numerical techniques) for primary depletion and secondary recovery (water/gas injection) projects.

Production/Oil Recovery Support:

• Prepares production testing proposals and provides guidelines for execution. Evaluate, interpret results and recommend optimum methods of performance monitoring.
• Prepare detailed short, medium and long-term production forecasts.
• Monitors production from field, analyses all relevant data and ensures that reservoirs are being properly managed, production is optimized and recoveries are optimal.
• Develop strategies to improve field production and recovery.

Reservoir Management:

• Challenge/screen well proposals and perform well evaluations and post mortem reviews.
• Conduct, document and present field reviews and further development proposals.
• Study and rank potential infill, recompletion and work-over targets
• Establish reservoir management strategies where they do not exist and update existing policies and procedures in line with statutory regulations.
• Manage and direct reservoir surveillance activities (MER, BHP etc.) and reservoir definition and behaviour prediction.
• Employ standard procedures and guidelines to estimate oil and gas reserves, and prepare/ document Annual Report of Producing Reservoirs (ARPR).

General Engineering:

• Implement Company’s health, safety and environmental policy, procedure and regulation as they relate to area of responsibility.
